This makes so much sense. I've been dealing with chronic fatigue and anemia for much of my life and I have hashimoto's, but this is the first time that I've ever heard that it's all related to low stomach acid. I was also prescribed and antacid a long time ago, which now I can see only exacerbated the situation. Thank you, I feel like I've been given a early Christmas gift!!
I had lots of health issues, thyroiditis, anemia, hair falling out, narcolepsy and a rare kidney surgery (only 300 reported worldwide) Survival rate is 5 years and I am in my 8th year. So I only have 1 kidney but am healed. I take 0 medications. Here's how... I fasted for a week with mineral and Vit B infused bone broth, and 2 avacados a day. Then went raw food, 70% plant based, keto diet (keeping all carbs at 20grams daily for the first year) with fresh green juice daily.

Brilliant. I'd never have linked SIBO and fatigue to low stomach acid. Thank you, Dr Berg. Looking forward to the day when your telephone consultancy becomes global.
With fatigue, you have unexplained, persistent, and relapsing exhaustion. It's similar to how you feel when you have the flu or have missed a lot of sleep. If you have chronic fatigue, or systemic exertion intolerance disease, you may wake in the morning feeling as though you've not slept.👍
@KAH Z You could have a hidden infection. If supplements make you feel worse, is it possible that when you take them, the pathogen is feeding off them? Have you tried intermittent fasting? That might help weaken any pathogens and strengthen your immune system to fight off the infection. Check out Dr. Berg's videos and see if they help. I "had" Hashimoto's but I knew it was related to trip to SE Asia and I suspected an infection all along. Blood tests were normal but my body wasn't feeling normal. I went with thyroid hormones for years and finally decided to tackle it on my own. Lots of research and supplements followed, with some relief. Intermittent fasting seemed to be the key for me along with reducing sugar. I hope you find a solution. Blessings.
*🙂 My fatigue comes from my Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and Menopause in my entire body and I’m 50 years old.😔 I feel like an old lady who need’s a new body! ☺️*
I know the feeling all too well. I went 7 years with RA being told I had fibro. Doc never believed something was seriuosly wrong, I had palendromic arthritis and RA. I fired his sorry butt...
I've had RA for 26 years please keep changing rheumatologist until you find one that puts you on a biological like Remicade. Also do daily cardio exercise as you can. I went from not being able to walk to running 6 miles.
@@julivictoria4501 It won't if you are willing to do some work. I started with providing my body plenty of minerals through foot soaks - Epsom Salts, sea salt and vinegar. Soak once a day if you can. Getting minerals into the body is important and I find using the skin to absorb minerals is much faster and easier than taking supplements. I then started building up missing nutrients through supplements and better food choices. I did intermittent fasting and dirty keto. I switched to lots of healthy fats - lard, butter, avocado, nuts, seeds, etc. Then I worked on my hormones. That was a game changer once my body was healthy. For me GABA, Choline, and inositol have been amazing at balancing my hormones. Dr. Berg has videos on all these topics. It took two years but I am far healthier now than I was in my youth. Pay attention to your body and work with it. This worked even with my 90 yo parents so it is never too late to regain your health. Blessings.

Good Morning Dr Berg 🌞 Thank you so very much for sharing this information with everyone , Have a great day , May God continue to bless you all ! 11/10/2020
I love your vids, I am ignorant of such things and now feel better equipped to tackle my health as I turned 60. Unfortunately I am able to identify with a lot of your vids meaning I have work to do to be healthy.
Yes ! I Read a book by Dr. Jerry Tennent, “HEALING IS VOLTAGE “an ophthalmologist, who said what stomach acid is made from & I now take those supplements along with the betaine before meals . I no longer need my esophagus stretched every 3 years & don’t need to worry about developing Barrett’s disease. A fascinating read ! So much to learn !
Nancy Kaufman, The book is interesting and makes a lot of sense since we are so isolated from the Earth now. I have grounding pads for my indoor cats. They love them. And I ground lot as well. A simple solution that we should teach others. Blessings.
@@thisorthat7626 I ordered grounding mats for our master bedroom along with pillowcases and throw blanket. Also bought tummy band, foot mat, and patches. The pet bed is currently out of stock. Hope it works. Would love to hear back from you.
@@ktortora611 You have it covered! I just use one pad for my cats (they share) and made a wrist band grounding strap for me when I need something extra. The throw blankets will work if your cats like to cuddle. (I am surrounded by cats right now, LOL). The pillowcases should be pretty nice. It will be very interesting to see how quickly you notice a difference. Congratulations for taking your health into your hands!!
These are my symptoms. Belching, gaz, urq pain. Did exam no sign of stones in gallbladder, liver is fine.. I started taking your gallbladder pills and I also ordered Betaine yesterday. . Thank you, so much.
For me at 65 , it is trying to keep with 4 Grandchildren ( that all live a 1/2 mile away ) from 5 to 16 years of age ! They are involved in so me activities that I feel like an unpaid Uber Diver , not so much as a Tip !
I was drinking just coffee and carbonated beverages and was not drinking water. And it took days to digest a meal.i was always feeling full and bloated.
I have been on ppi sumac for 5 years and iam of the opinion that this is reducing my stomach acid and effecting the efficient digestion of my food and creating my loss of energy
it is really important to mention that many people confuse TMG Betaine with Betaine HCL. They are two completely different things and are used for different issues. Please be sure you are buying Betaine HCL!!!!
L Glutamine!! Lets talk about that and leaky gut.... low stomach acid goes hand in hand!! One common symptom of CFIDS which is really a form of leaky gut is feeling ok for a short period of time after eating.
Do you think L glutamin helps for those who have intestinal permaability(aka: Leaky gut)? How much would you take or did you take? As I remember dr Berg recommends 10g on empty stomach.
@@futureflow8645 I have been self medicating with LG for the past three months and it has been helping to heal my leaky gut and IBS symptoms. Its amazing. I started with 40 gm per day split into 3 doses the biggest dose i wake up at 5am to take then go back to sleep as it gives it time to absorb. I also take zinc carnatine, and I make meat broth with pig feet to get the gelatin and add it to soups and stews and drink it neat. I drink Kefir with my food too. the L glutamine and the gelatin are the most important though. Good luck
Every morning apple cider vinegar does the same thing I suppose, and feels more natural to me. But the point is taken, enough acid is necessary for good functioning!
Dr.berg I've been suffering with chronic fatigue for 10years now I'm drained all the time don't know what to do and yes i suffer from gastritis please help don't know what to do thank you respect from London God bless you 👍🕊🌹💥
Doctor, I am a simple philologist But mom was a biologist. So I have knowledge in this field. You are one of the best "explainers " on the face of the earth ! I m following you on Twitter.
Low salt intake = GERD. Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid with pH of 1-1.2 very acidic. When pH rises that's when GERD occurs not the other way around. We require plenty of chlorine daily intake of sodium chloride (salt). Eat salt don't take antacids or PPI drugs these only provide temporarily relief like with almost every other drug
Hello doc, My Mum has chronic iron deficiency anaemia and takes iron supplementation. If she does not take the supplement her hematocrit drops very sharply and she has a blood transfusion. She also has a very large hiatus hernia and baret's syndrome. Is it possible that the large hiatus hernia is to blame for the anemia? She has never had a hydrochloric acid test either.
I'm fatigued all the time plus I have a dizziness issue. I have gerd so I take 20mg of Omeprazole daily but if I don't take it I start to be in big discomfort. Plus I have other health issues and insomnia.
Your explanation and solutions are so simple n effective . I am a strong believer of natural solutions thnk u Nsy d Creator give u many years of good health so that you can continue helping billions of people on this planet thnk u doctor God bless . Continue with d excellent video presentations .
Since i hit 55 a month ago, I have been sleepy at work, i do sleep my hours 7 8 and 9 hours and i eat well but i have been very tire, i bought the pills, lets see what will happen, thank you
I have CFIDS and Fibromyalgia for over 20 years. Nothing has helped including keto, nutritional yeast and everything you recommend. I am 64 and have had these conditions as well as spasmodic torticollis. Its hard to lose weight and excercise with these conditions. Incredible fatigue. Have been taking ACV for awhile. I have great digestion. I am not anemic and have otherwise good health. I will persist with all your advice but am cautiosly optimistic.
I'm knackered most of the time. Constantly need sleep because I don't sleep well. Pre diabetic doesn't help. I think I'll die within the next twenty years.
If it's really unbearable you should go to a doctor. If it's just a bit painful it could be inflammation, then reduce your sugar/carbs intake a lot and take ACV+lemonjuice etc - just search for "dr Berg inflammation" here on yT.
My mate and I had luck with the celery juice fad, actually. But the high nitrogen in grocery store celery triggers my migraine. But I was on the road to better digestion. My magnesium intake will always be key. We have citrus trees and my best remedy for digestive crashes now is eating an unripe kumquat or the zest from my lemons and limes. Commercial enzyme products trigger my migraine. Vinegar of any kind is migraine hell for me.
I heard, well watched a programme, where they said if you toast frozen bread without defrosting it the starch turns to resistant starch. I also watched another programme where they said if you reheat starchy foods (in the microwave I think) the starch becomes resistant as well. Not sure if all or only some of the starch in both cases becomes resistant. It would be good to know.
Thank you for this video. Can you also follow up with a video on breathlessness and the feeling of exhaustion,even during little task it still occurs. Is this related?
This sounds like a serious issue, I'm tempted to say see your doctor, though I'm kinda loathe to say it too, as they can be kinda useless with stuff like this and treat you like a whinger. Do go if you think you should!! Though don't take it to heart if they treat you like you're wasting their time. Have you thought about dairy intolerance?
It could be that your intestinal tract does not absorb nutrients much. Dairy inhibits absorption, but I assume you don’t eat dairy already, as it’s such an obvious one. Gluten too can be very irritating. Could try eating liver once a week.
I have turned into my mother in that, I have a fear of going to my MD for bloodwork. I'm 55 now and you never know what will pop up. I know not going is not preventing disease.....but🥴. For the past six years or so, I get fatigued pretty easily. And I dont mean sleepy. An example is, laying down mulch around my smallish house, I will feel like Im done in twenty minutes. Very sweaty. A bit dizzy and well, fatigued. The more time that goes by, while still working, I feel worse. I thought maybe low electrolytes. But I have been taking Dr. Bergs electrolyte powder for a month now, every day and the fatigue is the same.
@ Victoria Marshall I was on omeprazole for over 25 years and thought it had no side effects. However this year I was seriously ill and was suffering from iron deficiency and vitamin B12 and was anaemic. During my research I found that long term use of omeprazole.prevented the nutrients from different vitamins from being absorbed by the body. Now I don't use it and if I have any acid reflux problems I just have a good swig of Gaviscon Advance.
@@michaelwilcox6090 I've been on omeprozole for a hiatus hernia. I cannot stop this capsule as I too get horrendous acid reflux. I have also been aneamic for over 20 years same time I've been on omeprozole.
@@janeyd5280 Hi arts. Outside of Omeprazole Gaviscon Advance is the best short term solution. When I came off I expected all hell to break loose but it didn't. I think this is because I have such a good diet now and don't smoke or drink alcohol or take recreational drugs. I also have a hiatus hernia and hyper thyroidism, which I just forget about. I make a note of any food or drink that upsets me and avoid it. You should be able to eat vegetables alright and some fruits but stay clear of citrus ones. As much as possible I eat organic foods and cook quite a bit. This leaves out the nasty additives in many processed foods. I'm ultra careful what I eat and examine every label down to the finest detail. With the lockdown I shop from 3 different supermarkets plus a collection of organic farmers. I think if you look after yourself and avoid junk food you'll find some things you can eat. Needless to say avoid any activity which causes you emotional stress as this pumps out acid. That means watching TV and videos. I live a quiet life these days. I don't have a smart phone and probably never will, such unnecessary stimulation is bound to be bad for the stomach, and these days mine is in great shape. It's better to cut out the omeprazole and allow the vitamins and nutrients in your body to be absorbed. I've suffered many things this year and found that you must have as many of the vitamins your body needs as you can get to be in good health. So I don't just buy things I enjoy and can eat but I study vitamins from TH-cam videos and buy the foods containing the vitamins I need. You must do the research yourself as you just cannot rely on doctors as they'll just give you more pills.. It means I'm now eating a whole new range of foods that I never bothered with before.
Hey Dr.Berg, I have a couple of questions regarding Keto! So the first one is, is say for example you are eating 3,000 calories on Keto, would you be able to build more muscle and gain more strength on Keto as opposed to a regular diet with carbohydrates, in terms of taking both diets with the same amount of protein and calories for building muscle and strength, because you would assume that going on Keto, which is the healthier diet would help you achieve more strength and muscle. Second question is, is that when you go on Keto, how often do you have to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt? Would sprinkling some on your eggs in the morning, then doing 1 in a cup of water for lunch, and 1 for dinner be enough? Or do I need to take in water with Pink Himalayan Salt in between those meals? And also when I'm fasting say for like 20 hours do I need to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt or can it just be water? Because I know the benefits of the fast would be much more profound without vitamins, but I would assume it would be the same with minerals, because when I would do 20 hour or 24 hour fasts, I would only drink water, but I wasn't on Keto, so maybe I held in more water and salt, and also when I'm exercising like for example playing Tennis or working out on Keto, do I need to bring Pink Himalayan Salt to Tennis or working out? Or is water suffice?
I just 20 seconds ago started looking for some form of help. I tried to make a doc. Appointment on Friday but they work Tue. - Thur. As long as I can remember (even as a kid) little kid 7-8. In my free time I would sleep. Teenage years alcohol every day up 18 hrs a day. But always did manual labor on a farm. Relatively excellent health. Sick once a year. But my life has been work a very little activity and sleep. Divorced at 38 work sleep. Stress (Intense) everyday. I work construction and just figured it to be from hard work. At 50 last August (almost a year) even will cannot keep me going. Last Monday I could not sleep and ended up missing a day of work. Any ideas? I live on the road hard to eat good. No alcohol never drugs and no tobacco for 9 years. 3 pots of coffee a day.
But when I take Betaine hydrochoride I puke. What does that mean? Including the Dr. Berg gallbladder formula which has BC in it. What do I do? Please don't tell me to go to my doctor. They don't work.

Thank you so very much for sharing this information with everyone , Have a great day , May God continue to bless you all !

I love your vids, I am ignorant of such things and now feel better equipped to tackle my health as I turned 60. Unfortunately I am able to identify with a lot of your vids meaning I have work to do to be healthy.
Yet PPIs and H2 antagonist are given out like candy....keep up the good content man!
Yes ! I Read a book by Dr. Jerry Tennent, “HEALING IS VOLTAGE “an ophthalmologist, who said what stomach acid is made from & I now take those supplements along with the betaine before meals . I no longer need my esophagus stretched every 3 years & don’t need to worry about developing Barrett’s disease. A fascinating read ! So much to learn !
Nancy Kaufman, The book is interesting and makes a lot of sense since we are so isolated from the Earth now. I have grounding pads for my indoor cats. They love them. And I ground lot as well. A simple solution that we should teach others. Blessings.
@@thisorthat7626 would you mind letting me know where you purchased the grounding pads for your indoor cats? Thanks..
@@thisorthat7626 I ordered grounding mats for our master bedroom along with pillowcases and throw blanket. Also bought tummy band, foot mat, and patches. The pet bed is currently out of stock. Hope it works. Would love to hear back from you.
@@ktortora611 You have it covered! I just use one pad for my cats (they share) and made a wrist band grounding strap for me when I need something extra. The throw blankets will work if your cats like to cuddle. (I am surrounded by cats right now, LOL). The pillowcases should be pretty nice. It will be very interesting to see how quickly you notice a difference. Congratulations for taking your health into your hands!!
What supplements ?
Thank you Dr. Berg for this info. My husband and I are 55 years old and we are experiencing this.
Thank you and we are going to try this
Very glad to be of help!
Eat meat rare and without carbs, which take alkaline (doesn't play well with acidic juices) to digest. That helps.
I will try it (I will try anything) - thanks for the info. Anything to have energy.
Did you try it ? Did it help?
Excellent information!!! Thank you, Dr. Berg!!! 😀👍
After ciprofloxacin almost killed me I developed chronic fatigue and horrible weakness when hungry
Cipro me too
I thought we need to have apple cider vinegar.
acv also helps acidify stomach
if the condition is really bad in this case and you want a reversal in this then betain hydro chlo.. will only help
The correct answer is always ...both
🙏🙏👏👏👏👌👌💐
yes, it will help!
I invite all to watch Dr Berg's lives on friday. He gives a lot of info. Thank you for what you share dear Doctor ❤ from Mexico 😗
These are my symptoms. Belching, gaz, urq pain. Did exam no sign of stones in gallbladder, liver is fine..
I started taking your gallbladder pills and I also ordered Betaine yesterday. . Thank you, so much.
First dose made a great change in my energy levels. Awesome! Thank you Dr. Berg.
What exactly are you taking and is it still working for you? I need something
@@holymolyforever8730 Greetings, the recommended betain hydrochloride acid. I just found one on line.
First dose of "what" --I’m exhausted
Apple cider vinegar and lemon 🍋 water 💦
For me at 65 , it is trying to keep with 4 Grandchildren ( that all live a 1/2 mile away ) from 5 to 16 years of age ! They are involved in so me activities that I feel like an unpaid Uber Diver , not so much as a Tip !
Mine comes from working all the time.
I was drinking just coffee and carbonated beverages and was not drinking water. And it took days to digest a meal.i was always feeling full and bloated.
I have been on ppi sumac for 5 years and iam of the opinion that this is reducing my stomach acid and effecting the efficient digestion of my food and creating my loss of energy
it is really important to mention that many people confuse TMG Betaine with Betaine HCL. They are two completely different things and are used for different issues. Please be sure you are buying Betaine HCL!!!!
Great video Dr. Berg, thanks a lot!!! Could you do a Video on vaccines - the mRNA and DNA ones? Thank you
Greetings from Germany
I’d love you to explaine how this new mRNA vaccine works too
Good morning Dr. Berg because of you I learned about HCL thanks sooo much ❤️
L Glutamine!! Lets talk about that and leaky gut.... low stomach acid goes hand in hand!! One common symptom of CFIDS which is really a form of leaky gut is feeling ok for a short period of time after eating.
Do you think L glutamin helps for those who have intestinal permaability(aka: Leaky gut)?
How much would you take or did you take?
As I remember dr Berg recommends 10g on empty stomach.
@@futureflow8645 I have been self medicating with LG for the past three months and it has been helping to heal my leaky gut and IBS symptoms. Its amazing. I started with 40 gm per day split into 3 doses the biggest dose i wake up at 5am to take then go back to sleep as it gives it time to absorb. I also take zinc carnatine, and I make meat broth with pig feet to get the gelatin and add it to soups and stews and drink it neat. I drink Kefir with my food too. the L glutamine and the gelatin are the most important though. Good luck
@@justlookattheflowers4239 Thank you for replying. 40 gramm / day of the L glutamin you mean?
I m glad it helped!
I will try it also next week!
Every morning apple cider vinegar does the same thing I suppose, and feels more natural to me. But the point is taken, enough acid is necessary for good functioning!
How to take apple cider vinegar each morning?
@@thetree7694 one or two teaspoons in a glass of water, on a empty stomach. Rinse your teeth well afterwards because of the acid...
@@biodivers5294 have it in the morning or anytime please?
@@kingjaffri87 In the morning is probably the best, or before a heavy meal.
@@biodivers5294 thanks 🙏
Dr Berg, please make more videos on IBS and SIBO.
I will check with Dr. Berg about doing a video on this!

Dr.berg I've been suffering with chronic fatigue for 10years now I'm drained all the time don't know what to do and yes i suffer from gastritis please help don't know what to do thank you respect from London God bless you 👍🕊🌹💥
Depression, disillusionment and fear of death.
I have 4 friends (all young, under 40) suffering from CF. All of them are vegetarian. Hm-hm...
It's probably their overall diet rather than the vegetarian element that may be the issue
@Just Moi
Do you know how Vegetarian and vegans get their b12 & protein?🤦♂️🤷🏻♂️
@CJ DUNROVIN
Agreed.
And people who eat food that's dressed up to look like meat aren't vegan/ Vegetarian either 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️
I"ve started drinking Vinegar & Lemon water after supper and feel much better.
Doctor,
I am a simple philologist
But mom was a biologist.
So I have knowledge in this field.
You are one of the best "explainers " on the face of the earth !
I m following you on Twitter.
AMAZING info. Thank you!!!
Glad you found it useful!
Thank you Dr Berg for your expertise.
Omg! This made perfect sense. Thank you so much for this information!
Very glad to be of help.
I believe it, dr Berg! I’m taking so much HCL and I still have fatigue, acid reflux, I take 3 maybe I need more
Gosh, thank you for this information. It's so helpful!
Very glad to be of help.
Low salt intake = GERD. Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid with pH of 1-1.2 very acidic. When pH rises that's when GERD occurs not the other way around. We require plenty of chlorine daily intake of sodium chloride (salt). Eat salt don't take antacids or PPI drugs these only provide temporarily relief like with almost every other drug
I have to take Omeprazole on a daily basis because the stomach acid constantly gives me heartburn. I'm tired and fatigued all the time.
Thank you Dr. Berg you’re awesome to share your knowledge and help others globally. I appreciate you Dr. Berg
Very glad to be of help.
Dr Berg please make a video about how to reverse grey hairs in early age. Thanks.
Hello doc,
My Mum has chronic iron deficiency anaemia and takes iron supplementation. If she does not take the supplement her hematocrit drops very sharply and she has a blood transfusion. She also has a very large hiatus hernia and baret's syndrome. Is it possible that the large hiatus hernia is to blame for the anemia? She has never had a hydrochloric acid test either.
I'm fatigued all the time plus I have a dizziness issue. I have gerd so I take 20mg of Omeprazole daily but if I don't take it I start to be in big discomfort. Plus I have other health issues and insomnia.
What about fatigue from low adrenals and hashimotos? Not anemia or low potassium.
Your explanation and solutions are so simple n effective . I am a strong believer of natural solutions thnk u Nsy d Creator give u many years of good health so that you can continue helping billions of people on this planet thnk u doctor God bless . Continue with d excellent video presentations .
I’ve taken Prilosec for years for acid reflux. If I stop the Prilosec, the reflux will come back. Seems like a catch-22.
Betaine Hydrochloride- can you buy it over the counter? What brands are the best? What’s the optimal dosage?
Since i hit 55 a month ago, I have been sleepy at work, i do sleep my hours 7 8 and 9 hours and i eat well but i have been very tire, i bought the pills, lets see what will happen, thank you
I have CFIDS and Fibromyalgia for over 20 years. Nothing has helped including keto, nutritional yeast and everything you recommend. I am 64 and have had these conditions as well as spasmodic torticollis. Its hard to lose weight and excercise with these conditions. Incredible fatigue. Have been taking ACV for awhile. I have great digestion. I am not anemic and have otherwise good health. I will persist with all your advice but am cautiosly optimistic.
Vitamin d3 or b12
do you have any silver fillings or root canals?
I'm knackered most of the time. Constantly need sleep because I don't sleep well. Pre diabetic doesn't help. I think I'll die within the next twenty years.
So where do you get betaine hydrochloride?
What about unbearable body ache upon arising every morning? The ache disappears soon after moving about.
Is that an age thing too?
In my experience body aches went away after going on keto.
If it's really unbearable you should go to a doctor.
If it's just a bit painful it could be inflammation, then reduce your sugar/carbs intake a lot and take ACV+lemonjuice etc - just search for "dr Berg inflammation" here on yT.
check this out: th-cam.com/video/gBGp2gVuEok/w-d-xo.html
Yes it is age related but in my case it got much better once I quit sugar
@@869475397 3 weeks on Keto I gained 3 kg. 😂 I had to stop it because my goal was more energy not gaining weight.
Dr. Berg's voice is deeper on this video.
Wow! I'm saving and sharing this! So many people need this information! Betaine hydrochloride!
Would applecidervinegar do it to?
My mate and I had luck with the celery juice fad, actually. But the high nitrogen in grocery store celery triggers my migraine. But I was on the road to better digestion. My magnesium intake will always be key. We have citrus trees and my best remedy for digestive crashes now is eating an unripe kumquat or the zest from my lemons and limes. Commercial enzyme products trigger my migraine. Vinegar of any kind is migraine hell for me.
I’m 51 and this is good to know.. thank you 🙏
Very glad to be of help!
Dr. Berg, can you make a topic about resistant starch. Thank you
Would be great ☺️
Yes, please!
I heard, well watched a programme, where they said if you toast frozen bread without defrosting it the starch turns to resistant starch.
I also watched another programme where they said if you reheat starchy foods (in the microwave I think) the starch becomes resistant as well.
Not sure if all or only some of the starch in both cases becomes resistant.
It would be good to know.
@@anon9362 yeah, I heard about that too
Thank you for the video suggestion. I will check with Dr. Berg about doing a video on this!
Dr. Berg's Support Team.
Thank you for this video. Can you also follow up with a video on breathlessness and the feeling of exhaustion,even during little task it still occurs. Is this related?
This sounds like a serious issue, I'm tempted to say see your doctor, though I'm kinda loathe to say it too, as they can be kinda useless with stuff like this and treat you like a whinger. Do go if you think you should!! Though don't take it to heart if they treat you like you're wasting their time. Have you thought about dairy intolerance?
Check out dr berg’s video on air hunger and see if you think it applies to you
Miss A I have suffered breathlessness for around 10 years. I am aneamic and think the two are related.x
It could be that your intestinal tract does not absorb nutrients much. Dairy inhibits absorption, but I assume you don’t eat dairy already, as it’s such an obvious one. Gluten too can be very irritating. Could try eating liver once a week.
Thank you for the replies, I do have a dairy intolerance and suffered from low hemoglobin a couple of years ago. Hmm will definitely look into it all.
I just love your videos! Thank You so Much!
You are very welcome.
Thank you dear Dr
Good information, thank you for sharing Dr. Berg 🙏
You are very welcome.
I'm gonna try that..thanks Dr.Berg!!
Most welcome!
Tiredness is a reflection of stress of a health condition or life fact
I have turned into my mother in that, I have a fear of going to my MD for bloodwork. I'm 55 now and you never know what will pop up. I know not going is not preventing disease.....but🥴.
For the past six years or so, I get fatigued pretty easily. And I dont mean sleepy. An example is, laying down mulch around my smallish house, I will feel like Im done in twenty minutes. Very sweaty. A bit dizzy and well, fatigued. The more time that goes by, while still working, I feel worse. I thought maybe low electrolytes. But I have been taking Dr. Bergs electrolyte powder for a month now, every day and the fatigue is the same.
Stress lowers HCL too
THANK YOU DR BERG!!
Dr Berg I’m on omoprazole for many years how do I get off it when I try I get murderous heartburn
@ Victoria Marshall
I was on omeprazole for over 25 years and thought it had no side effects. However this year I was seriously ill and was suffering from iron deficiency and vitamin B12 and was anaemic. During my research I found that long term use of omeprazole.prevented the nutrients from different vitamins from being absorbed by the body. Now I don't use it and if I have any acid reflux problems I just have a good swig of Gaviscon Advance.
@@michaelwilcox6090 thank you so much
@@michaelwilcox6090 I've been on omeprozole for a hiatus hernia. I cannot stop this capsule as I too get horrendous acid reflux. I have also been aneamic for over 20 years same time I've been on omeprozole.
@@janeyd5280
Hi arts. Outside of Omeprazole Gaviscon Advance is the best short term solution. When I came off I expected all hell to break loose but it didn't. I think this is because I have such a good diet now and don't smoke or drink alcohol or take recreational drugs. I also have a hiatus hernia and hyper thyroidism, which I just forget about. I make a note of any food or drink that upsets me and avoid it. You should be able to eat vegetables alright and some fruits but stay clear of citrus ones. As much as possible I eat organic foods and cook quite a bit. This leaves out the nasty additives in many processed foods. I'm ultra careful what I eat and examine every label down to the finest detail. With the lockdown I shop from 3 different supermarkets plus a collection of organic farmers. I think if you look after yourself and avoid junk food you'll find some things you can eat. Needless to say avoid any activity which causes you emotional stress as this pumps out acid. That means watching TV and videos. I live a quiet life these days. I don't have a smart phone and probably never will, such unnecessary stimulation is bound to be bad for the stomach, and these days mine is in great shape. It's better to cut out the omeprazole and allow the vitamins and nutrients in your body to be absorbed. I've suffered many things this year and found that you must have as many of the vitamins your body needs as you can get to be in good health. So I don't just buy things I enjoy and can eat but I study vitamins from TH-cam videos and buy the foods containing the vitamins I need. You must do the research yourself as you just cannot rely on doctors as they'll just give you more pills.. It means I'm now eating a whole new range of foods that I never bothered with before.
I was told to slowly step down from omneprezle started by skipping 2 days a week like Monday’s and Thursdays.
Really interesting.
Thank you brother
Hey Dr.Berg, I have a couple of questions regarding Keto! So the first one is, is say for example you are eating 3,000 calories on Keto, would you be able to build more muscle and gain more strength on Keto as opposed to a regular diet with carbohydrates, in terms of taking both diets with the same amount of protein and calories for building muscle and strength, because you would assume that going on Keto, which is the healthier diet would help you achieve more strength and muscle. Second question is, is that when you go on Keto, how often do you have to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt? Would sprinkling some on your eggs in the morning, then doing 1 in a cup of water for lunch, and 1 for dinner be enough? Or do I need to take in water with Pink Himalayan Salt in between those meals? And also when I'm fasting say for like 20 hours do I need to drink water with Pink Himalayan Salt or can it just be water? Because I know the benefits of the fast would be much more profound without vitamins, but I would assume it would be the same with minerals, because when I would do 20 hour or 24 hour fasts, I would only drink water, but I wasn't on Keto, so maybe I held in more water and salt, and also when I'm exercising like for example playing Tennis or working out on Keto, do I need to bring Pink Himalayan Salt to Tennis or working out? Or is water suffice?
I just 20 seconds ago started looking for some form of help. I tried to make a doc. Appointment on Friday but they work Tue. - Thur.
As long as I can remember (even as a kid) little kid 7-8.
In my free time I would sleep.
Teenage years alcohol every day up 18 hrs a day. But always did manual labor on a farm.
Relatively excellent health. Sick once a year.
But my life has been work a very little activity and sleep.
Divorced at 38 work sleep. Stress (Intense) everyday.
I work construction and just figured it to be from hard work.
At 50 last August (almost a year) even will cannot keep me going.
Last Monday I could not sleep and ended up missing a day of work. Any ideas?
I live on the road hard to eat good. No alcohol never drugs and no tobacco for 9 years. 3 pots of coffee a day.
Could also cause fatigue under 50??
But when I take Betaine hydrochoride I puke. What does that mean? Including the Dr. Berg gallbladder formula which has BC in it. What do I do? Please don't tell me to go to my doctor. They don't work.
You should go the probiotic route
@@Drberg That doesn’t help either! I’ve tried them all and your solutions.
@@southerngrandma4353 ... did you try the probiotic by Standard Process called Prosynbiotic ? I find it to be the best.
@@theedgar1959 No, I haven’t tried that one...Thanks! 😊
I should have said I have tried a lot of them, I obviously have not tried all of them.
*💁🏻♀️ When my daughter was younger our family doctor said that she’s missing one of the acids in her stomach that breaks down food, her body doesn’t produce it.* *She does have hyperthyroidism too.* *When she was younger I took her to a genetic doctor. 👩🏼⚕️ The doctor told me she has an Auto Immune Disease type B that a lot of doctors don’t know too much about.* *Dr. said, this autoimmune disease known as type B comes from the Netherlands 🇳🇱*
What about the ACV drink before meals, and as a daily routine?
Age is not an excuse the issue is what causes it to lower since some older people dont have an issue and it's not genetics. I assume its nutrient balance and nutrients
You do know that your bodily functions wind down as you get older, right? Or do you think that age is no excuse for death, either? 🙄
@@edennis8578 Age is usually an excuse look at someone like Jack lalaine How he could move yet others that can't they say it's part of age while other old people that I have met 90 years old that don't wear glasses says because he ate a lot of fish while others that visions are not good everyone's excuses because its age
I’m only 25 but I think I have this for sure
I wish my mom could watch the video! She's almost 90 and she doesn't care about TH-cam, but she knows about Dr Berg and would trusts the guy who helped me 😊 I'll have to re-tell her word by word so, maybe, she'll follow doctor's advice about the stomach acid!
Can she read or just listen to what Dr. Berg is saying instead with the closed captioning and not watching the video?
Can you take after gastric bypass?
Or ACV??
Yes
thank so much doctor..........you helped me to overcome with fatigue.......!
You're welcome. Glad my videos helped you. Take care.
